WADESBORO — On May 7, 2020, Anson County 4-H held its first Virtual County Presentation. This year’s format was different from previous years where parents, friends, and relatives were able to attend Anson County’s annual Fashion Revue, Creative Talent Show, and County Presentation at the Cooperative Extension Office.
In response to COVID-19, the event was scaled down to only include County Presentations. The conversion to a virtual program consisted of youth submitting pre-recorded presentation videos on a topic of their choice. The videos were then judged and scored.
Winners of county presentations were Amelia Poplin, first, 9-10 Environmental Science;Quenton Cromartie, first, 14-18 Agricultural Science; and Keyshawn Tillman, first, 14-18 Public Speaking. Those county presenters advanced to the district competition in June.
